No Man’s Sky tops the August download chart on PlayStation 4

While we usually only focus on the UK retail charts every Monday morning, I thought it would be interesting to see how things are going on the PlayStation Store front itself, and with that, here are your August charts according to PlayStation themselves.

No Man’s Sky, which released last month to a mountain of hype took the top spot. Battlefield 4 was previously up there, but with the anticipation for Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky, there was never any doubt it would succeed. If only it was as critically and wholly enjoyed by the media and the gamers. I wonder where it will sit in September’s charts. Probably still high, as some people don’t pay as much attention to gaming news websites as you’d imagine.

Rainbow Six Siege and Battlefield Hardline are still proving to be popular titles, up there in 3rd and 4th respectively. No surprise seeing GTA V doing so well, even after 3 years at retail, and then there’s the glorious Rocket League, which still pumps out new content every now and then. Bear in mind it has been on PlayStation 4 since July last year, so seeing it up in 8th place over a year later goes to show how popular and addictive it is!

With loads of new releases coming this week, it will be interesting to see how the charts look on Monday morning in the all formats!
